#Benefactor
The project was funded by an industry benefactor (ICI) who made a film of the exchange trip. We each researched an aspect of 1776 and wrote a chapter for a book. I wrote about the diseases that were prevalent in the warring armies (smallpox was big - and the Americans were keen on vaccination). 2/

I wanted to give Mr. Stamford a proper character sheet, and I got carried away. 😅

Also, Canada has been a huge benefactor for this money. International investors are looking for stability and opportunity with close approximation to profit from the US without having their money subject to Trump fuckery, and that's Canada.

Happily, we've lived to see women push open stable doors - tho' I suspect farmers' wives
could often sort out pony & trap, like my grandmother's benefactor, who drove her to Brigg Market! You coped with horses professionally -& I had good amateur times! All the best for you & the Ghosts for 2026!

her benefactor gave her that name cuz he don’t want her to carry any heavy expectation which is ironic lol

the surname Amoret they shared tho is because family n all, plus if her life can be filled with a bit more love….

"Secretary of War" says it all from the leading benefactor of Trump's generosity with OUR tax dollars.

New INTERSECTIONS: "Receiving Care with Gratitude," by Kenneth C. Way, PhD
www.cbhd.org/intersection...

In my circumstance of illness, I am the beneficiary who benefits from my wife’s caregiving. When I think about Lori (or any medical professional) as my benefactor, I am prompted to give thanks.

If you're out there, I could really use a lovely benefactor who can help me make art all the time, rather than have to look at budget spreadsheets and answer emails.

Thanks.

As in Leslie Wexner, the Jeff Epstein benefactor currently under subpoena from a federal judge in Ohio and the House Oversight Committee?

It’s becoming clear to me that I’m going to have to go to Washington D.C. to force the issue because this is getting ridiculous.

Harvard was founded by some wealthy white dudes, obviously, in 1636. At the time, it was actually called New College (lmao), and its whole deal was educating PURITAN clergy members and was, in fact, named after its first benefactor, John Harvard.

"From who"

God baby. And my benefactor. Write that down.

Benefactor asked how many words I wrote last year for cmms and I, never counted, I only think I write a little, and...

I only count the visible ones (ao3 + whatever I did with books) so still minus actual cmms wordcount but the numbers should be [redacted]

And as a side benefit some mystery benefactor can do a bunch of money laundering that's largely indistinguishable from the marks throwing their money down the hole.

Like political publishing in the Uk - a “benefactor” buys the print run and pulps most of it

I would simply not hand it to social conservative and GOP benefactor Philip Rivers.

Benefactor is unsatisfied and a bit sick. Please refund
January 13, 2026 at 4:25 AM

Last week we purchased the first two generators.
​First, we raised funds for one unit. The next day, I bought it. But while I was driving to ship it, an unknown benefactor donated 25,000 UAH🤯
​So I immediately turned around and bought the second generator!
​Magic happens thanks to you!✨

I can't personally vouch for the veracity of this but this is our fascist "shared values" bestest friend and security benefactor
ICE Trump regime agents kidnapped a 17 year old boy working at Target, the regime thugs beat and tortured him then dropped him off 9 minutes away from his job site when they realized he was a US citizen, he was bloodied and bruised when witnesses helped him.

Seriously!! She's doing good benefactor but would love to see that
